Description

The listing, MY FIRST,LOOK!! IS THIS A FLIP OR A FLOP? I WANT YOUR OPINION & YOUR BIDS!! (: has ended.

This is my first,and now that I made this,I will be making a few changes.
Made from washed old jeans,I make two from every pair.
But I would like you to look at the pics, and give your honest opinion,and vote Flip or Flop.
No need for rude comments,just if you like it or not.
This is a cross body jean purse I designed and made.
It took me 5 hours to make including cutting and sewing.
The front closure flap, has a usable jean pocket.
It is lined( with a small paisley designed material.)
Also the inside front panel has a cell phone or smart phone holder, with a key ring for your charms or keys.
Comes with matching Stash Pouch(6"x 3-3/4")
Purse is 10" long,7" wide.Handle drop is 24".
The last two pictures I stuffed it loosely with grocery bags so you could see it full.
Like I said,I will be making a few improvements for the next one,but I still would like your vote and your bids,if you like it.
Sticker on inside is removable,just says I made it.
Thanks !

Questions & Comments

Oh,thank you so much,you are so sweet to say so. My next will be a bit better. Also I have a plan for a square one. lol.

The design it's self is not for me...however, as the daughter of a seamstress I know a thing or two about sewing. lol It appears you did an EXCELENT job! I have no doubt that this bag would last even my purse killing daughter a good while! By looking at the pictures one can not tell this is a home made bag...it has a very professional appearance! I will be watching for a design by you that IS for me! lol

I thank you for your very nice comments.I will be making a variety of purses,hopefully one of them will be more for you. Thanks so much!

Jun 20th, 2013 at 5:11:52 AM PDT by

I say flip, cute!!

Jun 22nd, 2013 at 7:02:25 AM PDT by

Thank you very much!

Jun 22nd, 2013 at 2:41:57 PM PDT by

Definitely a flip! Soooo cool! :D I would love to see you make some from patterned or acid-wash denim for a trendy kick :)

Jun 17th, 2013 at 9:37:19 AM PDT by

Thank you very much,good idea! (:

Jun 17th, 2013 at 9:40:18 AM PDT by

I love it !!!!!!Bidding watching fanning - I think you should make more maybe even a bit larger :)!!!!!!

Jun 17th, 2013 at 10:36:14 PM PDT by

Thanks so much,that is my next project,making the purse and strap a little larger. But I am still going to make this size,because I think it is a good size. Fanned you back ,good luck!

Jun 18th, 2013 at 5:49:21 AM PDT by

Oh,I am already your fan Tpeal2012,I won the costume from you,I love it!

Jun 18th, 2013 at 5:53:32 AM PDT by

I like it a lot! Very cute! I do stuff like this too. As a consumer though I have to improvements I'd like to see. 1. a cuter pint for the lining fabric. That one looks like grandpas PJ's. No offence! :)
2. A zipper on the stash pouch.
Other than that I like it, cute shape!!

Jun 18th, 2013 at 7:44:55 PM PDT by

Lol,thank you. It is a paisley print,but I have so many cuter prints and patterns. A zipper on the stash pouch would be fine,but I thought a snap would be a bit quicker to open. Thanks for your input,I appreciate it.

Jun 18th, 2013 at 8:15:38 PM PDT by

I really wish this were larger. I would be able to use this size but need to carry some medicines along with everything else. I truely think you have a flip and definitly would say "keep on making them". I am watching.

Jun 19th, 2013 at 5:07:01 PM PDT by

Thank you,I am going to make a couple different sizes. Thanks for your comments(:

Jun 19th, 2013 at 5:48:03 PM PDT by

Oh yes i am a lover of paisley but would like a larger print for myself.

Jun 19th, 2013 at 5:07:52 PM PDT by

Yes ,I have different patterns I am going to use next.

Jun 19th, 2013 at 5:46:53 PM PDT by

Thank you so much! fanned back!

There's a whole world out there ready to gobble up these hand-bags, if you can get the process streamlined (and on Etsy, as I saw in a comment down below). the potential ... can be rather fun and exhilarating ... :)
Anyhow ...

Art has this way of bringing about great changes ... :

Jun 16th, 2013 at 9:16:44 PM PDT by

Thank you!

Jun 17th, 2013 at 5:30:52 AM PDT by

Hiya Deanna ... stopped by to gaze at your home-made purse again ... wow ... :)
Still watching, too ... just so ya know ... :)

Jun 22nd, 2013 at 4:26:45 PM PDT by

Thanks, I got to get going on my next one. Been a little busy. Thanks for watching.(" ")

Jun 22nd, 2013 at 5:41:42 PM PDT by

I honestly like it.!! I believe that you would get a good amount of bids on one with a neon color fabric inside or like a zebra or cheetah print.!! Bright colors and animal print seem to be very popular recently.!! Just thought that I would share my opinion.!! :) Good luck to you and your success.!!

Jun 23rd, 2013 at 3:59:21 AM PDT by

Thank you,I will keep that in mind.(:

Jun 23rd, 2013 at 4:41:47 AM PDT by

already a fan, watching, I love this very nice! plz come watch my stuffed bag as well!!! Thanks

Jun 23rd, 2013 at 8:46:40 AM PDT by

Thank you,and I will put a watch on your stuffed bag,good luck!

Jun 23rd, 2013 at 9:10:24 AM PDT by

You did a good job, nice! I would need one as large as a diaper bag with a divider.

Jun 23rd, 2013 at 4:29:10 PM PDT by

Thanks! That could be made using the whole upper part of the jeans.

Jun 24th, 2013 at 5:01:26 AM PDT by

What a cute purse. You did a great job:)

Jun 23rd, 2013 at 6:22:57 PM PDT by

Thank you so much!

Jun 24th, 2013 at 5:00:14 AM PDT by

It's amazing do you make different kinds? We really from the same town I would love to see them

Jun 23rd, 2013 at 7:56:37 PM PDT by

I am working on more,I don't have anymore completed yet. I will be listing another soon. Then I am going to try and make a bunch of them. When I do I would be glad to show you. Thanks!

Jun 24th, 2013 at 4:59:45 AM PDT by

will you have more of them up for bid?

Jun 24th, 2013 at 2:01:59 AM PDT by

Yes I will,I am working on one now. Thanks for your interest!

Jun 24th, 2013 at 4:57:18 AM PDT by

I would say you should get at least $15 for this size and if you make a larger size go up another $5 or $10, if you see that might be to much you can always adjust your price. The rule of thumb that my late husband always used for his crafts was the cost of your materials and your time it took you to make it X's 4 GOOD LUCK :)

Jun 15th, 2013 at 5:31:36 AM PDT by

Thank you very much for your info,I will keep it all in mind.

Jun 15th, 2013 at 5:37:04 AM PDT by

Thanks so much Diane! I appreciate your opinion and your bid.I would like to see your necklaces. You can really make a lot of different things from jeans.

Jun 14th, 2013 at 7:24:15 AM PDT by

I also shared on my facebook for you, good luck

Jun 14th, 2013 at 8:25:39 AM PDT by

Jun 14th, 2013 at 2:22:39 PM PDT by

This is really a cute purse:) You're missing the boat!! You should be selling them for REAL MONEY like at ARTS AND CRAFT SHOWS you could get a good price for them! GOOD LUCK

Jun 14th, 2013 at 9:30:52 PM PDT by

Thanks! And thanks for the advice,what would be a fair price,do you think?
